“ Pressure on the use of heavy metals, VOC levels and the need to incorporate

more renewable materials are the facts of life for today’s coatings industry. OMG

recognizes that increasing regulation together with increasing cost pressures and

demands for ever higher performance present a continuous challenge to coatings

formulators, and that incremental improvements to existing technologies can only go

so far in meeting this challenge. Our approach is to search out and apply technology

new to the coatings industry which is capable of giving the significant improvements

in performance needed to respond to today’s pressure.”
